Abstract
In this article, we reflect on the position of researcher-as-facilitator of prisoner ethnography. By privileging the standpoint and the voice of prisoners as a way of knowing about carceral spaces, we differentiate between the position of researcher-as-facilitator of prisoner ethnography and other approaches to ethnography in prisons. Based on our editorial work with the Journal of Prisoners on Prisons—a peer-reviewed and academically-oriented journal printed by a university press, featuring articles authored or co-authored by current and former prisoners—we discuss the process, possibilities, and constraints of this form of prison research.
